This spot is located inside the Blossom Market Food Hall. Parking was easy since they have their own parking lot and plenty of nearby street parking. Service was ok since this is just an order and sit down place so not too much interaction. Used my SGV Foodie Passport and redeemed a Free Chicken Wrap Got a buzzer after placing my order which was very convenient so I could browse around the food hall. The chicken wrap normally would cost $13.99 which seems pretty pricey! The chicken tasted quite dry and bland. Not a big fan of the sauce used because it was incredible salty. The garlic paste and veggies (lettuce, pickles, tomatoes) were just ok and nothing special. Overall, I wasn't too impressed and felt the food was overpriced unfortunately.

Background On Wahib's: Wahib's Mediterranean Express started with a simple idea: to serve fresh, wholesome Mediterranean food in a welcoming space. From day one, we wanted a place where everyone could enjoy meals made with care and high-quality ingredients. Over the years, we've grown while keeping our focus on fresh food and friendly service. Mission Statement: Our goal is to make every visit feel easy, enjoyable, and satisfying. Note: Not related to Wahib's Middle East in Alhambra. I just realized that restaurant is no longer there. :( Background On Visit: Last month, I purchased a mysgv passport ($30), which gives you food, treats, and drink deals at local restaurants across the San Gabriel Valley. It's a great to discover local hidden gems while supporting small businesses in the community. After misplacing the passport for a little over a month, I finally found it and deciding to go on a foodie adventure to Wahib's. MySGV Offering: Chicken or Falafel Wrap. I chose the chicken wrap. Location/Parking: Located inside the Blossom Market Hall next to Caribbean Gourmet. Parking can be found in their private lot. Ambiance/Decor: Ambiance could be the same as the food hall with some communal bar tables up front from the food stall. There are ceiling fans that might make your eyes uncomfortable (shadows from the fan blades/light or wind blowing into your eyes). Service: Service was alright. George was friendly and quite informational about the shop. Order of operations is fairly straight forward. Order at the cashier, take yourself with your pager somewhere to sit, wait, or walk around til your food is ready to picked up. Food Of Choice: 1) Chicken Wrap: Consists of brochette of chicken breast, marinated and grilled rolled with lettuce, tomatoes and garlic paste. Chicken wrap was good. Liked how it had a little crunch with almost every bite. 2) Hummus (8 oz.): So gooood! I might've found a closer place to get my hummus cravings satisfied. :) Wahib's For Thought: I wouldn't mind coming back to try other items on their menu. Yes... Hummus will also be ordered.

05/30/26 Saturday Lebanese stall located in Blossom Hall Food Court. My first time at this food court. We arrived around 12:40 PM and managed to snag two tables for our party of 16. It was quite lively. I ordered a gyro plate and it came around 15 minutes after. They give you a little buzzer so you don't have to stand and wait. Personally, the gyro is too salty for me. Add in the pickles, even saltier. The creamy sauce is pretty heavy too. The thicker bread was very tasty. The hummus was delicious too. The pita was a little tough. It was almost enough food for two because of how dense and heavy everything was. We found street parking. It was a little extra busy today because of the farmers market so it took us a good amount of time to find a spot.

Chicken Kebob, Lamb Gyro Wrap
Ashley H.

Wow!!!! I can't believe I have been going to Blossom Market Hall for years now and ONLY NOW just discovered Wahib's Mediterranean Express. But I can confidently say that after one meal here, I will be coming back~ Items ordered: 5/5 - Chicken Plate - Garlic Fries - Lamb Gyro Wrap - Baklava Everything here was freshly cooked and made to perfection. But my favorite dish was by far the chicken plate. Let me preface this first with a foodie confession. I'm usually not the biggest fan of chicken kebabs (I prefer beef). Most of the time I find them very dry and bland. However, after hearing from the owner's son that it is their best selling dish, I was convinced to try it. And it truly exceeded all my expectations! With each bite, the meat was packed with juicy, delicious flavor and just melted into my mouth. And with the combination of aromatic rice, grilled zucchini, and fresh hummus, my dad and I completely devoured our plate. Now it got me to thinking: what makes it so different from other places? Well, I actually learned that the owners import a special olive oil to infuse into all their meats, giving it a rich flavor without excess fat. Next time when I return, I'm definitely trying the beef kebab to compare! SERVICE: 5/5 Honestly some of the nicest, humblest, and friendly staff I've ever seen! They were able to answer my questions and offer suggestions, which I deeply appreciate as a foodie aiming to try the best of what each establishment offers. The location is quite convenient and inside Blossom Food Hall with other food vendors in vicinity. (I've actually came several times for ice cream and didn't realize how extensive it was). Seating is plentiful with bar seating and tables throughout the food court. Of note, because it's located on Mission Drive, parking may be limited during certain hours but there's a parking lot in the back. I didn't have an issue finding parking although I can see it easily getting packed on busier events. Overall, with its deliciously made food and fantastic service, they definitely earned me as a regular - and I'll bring the family this time

Falafel Wrap SGV passport 2026
May W.

SGV passport Falafel Wrap: The wrap is long about the size of my hydro flask. Falafel was crunchy, fresh veggies wrapped around the wrap. Get's you filled up!

beef luhle plate
Sheeny N.

Visited this spot on a Friday evening and had to wait 20 minutes for the food to be ready... I was honestly surprised because every other restaurant in this market hall preps their food really quick, even on the busier days. SO BE PREPARED TO WAIT. I ordered the Luhle Kabob Plate. You would think the food would be piping hot since it's made fresh and required such a long wait...but no... Everything was lukewarm and the bread was cold. The salad consisted of lettuce and some marinated tomatoes that tasted sour. The hummus was very bland and the bread was thin, but soft. The Luhle (ground beef) was savory, but wasn't very juicy at all. The RICE, however, was very delicious. It was well seasoned and you can taste the different spices used to flavor it. Very earthy notes. Overall, very underwhelming experience. Mediocre and not worth the price or wait. Would probably not go back again. It's located inside Blossom Market Hall, so you order and seat yourself. Food will be ready when the buzzer they give you rings. Free street and lot parking available.

We ordered: Chicken Kebob Plate Gyro Plate Beef Kebob Wrap Garlic French Fries Wahib's Mediterranean Grill serves up the freshest and most delicious Mediterranean cuisine in the SGV! The chicken kebob was tender and juicy with amazing seasoning, the gyro meat was packed with flavor, and the beef wrap was so satisfying with every bite. Especially when paired with their refreshing and creamy tzatziki sauce! The pita bread was insanely fluffy and pillowy as well, which paired nicely with hummus and side sauces. The garlic fries were crispy dangerously addictive! The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted super fresh, and the service was warm and welcoming. The perfect spot for a casual healthier lunch option or when you're craving authentic Mediterranean food in the SGV!

Beef Kebob Plate - Filet Mignon ($19.99) - Above View
Ian A.

I had a lovely experience at Wahib's Mediterranean Express (San Gabriel). I ordered the Beef Kebab Plate ($19.99 - Filet Mignon at Medium Rare). It's juicy & plump steak, fresh rice, salad, pita bread, and clean hummus. WOW! It's cooked perfectly. JUICY!! I arrived at Wahib's Mediterranean Express (San Gabriel) around 6:32PM. Parking is very easy. If there's no carnival or special events, there's a huge available lot. However, there's also plentiful, free street parking. I quickly found a spot. Customers order at the counter. Staff (receipt says Melly) is welcoming, professional, and hardworking. When finished, customers receive an electronic pager that buzzes/beeps when the meal is ready. My meal was ready around eight minutes. Amazing time!! As mentioned, I ordered the Beef Kebab Plate ($19.99 - Filet Mignon at Medium Rare). It's perhaps one of the BEST versions of this meal that I've ever tasted. The filet mignon steak is thick, plump, and juicy. There's a clean, fresh meat flavor that I typically only associate with upscale steak restaurants. I'm AMAZED! Next, the rice is warm and fresh, and the hummus is clean and satisfying. I happily feasted. I left full with a smile. Regarding ambiance, Wahib's Mediterranean Express (San Gabriel) is a food stall inside the popular Blossom Market Hall. The location is fairly clean, and there's many available tables inside. I enjoyed the vibrant artwork on this food hall's ceiling. All in all, ambiance is fairly minimal. Overall, I found unexpected joy at Wahib's Mediterranean Express (San Gabriel). There's integrity in its ingredients, and the food tasted delightful. If searching for a steak kebab plate, this is a very easy recommendation. 4.9 out of 5. GO!!

Wahib Mediterranean Grill is a must try Mediterranean food at Blossom Market Hall. It is located at the very left corner inside the hall. The menu includes; chicken kebob plates, salmon plates, Gyro, beef Kebob, kefta kebob, falafel, lule, wraps, salads, fries, hummus, stuffed grape leaves to mention a few. In addition to desserts and drinks. I ordered kefta kebob and chicken kebob combo plate for one. It came with salad, rice, grilled zucchini, hummus and pita bread. The plate had generous portions.The beef and chicken kebob were very very juicy and flavorful. Their hummus was rich and creamy. Everything was fantastic. Shoutout to Bashar! He was a very nice gentleman and friendly too. He told me that they opened three years ago. The staff were very nice. The service was fast. I will be back soon to try more of their delicious menu.

Hair inside my wrap

I've always enjoyed their food. I have ordered many times. Never had a problem with my order until today. I ordered a wrap. Was enjoying my wrap when I noticed a hair! So unfortunate. Had to throw my dinner away.

Gyro plate. Rice hidden at the bottom.

Growing up, I've seen Wahib in Alhambra, but never gave it a try. Unfortunately, that location has closed. Coming across this location at the Blossom food market, I had to give this place a try. The staff was friendly and there were many choices on the menu. My gf ordered the chicken kebab plate, which was flavorful and I ordered the gyro plate, which was also delicious. The ingredients were of great quality and there were many places to sit. There's also a nearby bar to purchase alcoholic drinks if that's your thing. Overall I'm appreciative this Lebanese establishment still exists and I will definitely be back.

Combo for Two
Serinee T.

Delicious Mediterranean food with an excellent combo deal that is more than enough for 2 people. Food does take a bit of time but it's because they cook it after ordering. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and is cooked to perfection. The sides that come with the combo pair incredibly well with the rice and proteins. We will definitely be back and keep this spot in our rotation.

Chicken Wrap

Just claimed 1 free chicken wrap with my sgv passport. The chicken wrap took over 15 minutes to make it was a dead Tuesday around 2pm. I don't know why it took so long. Food was okay. The chicken wrap was served hot, filled with lots of pickled veggies, chicken, and some red sauce. I'm not too sure what caused me to go to the restroom right away? I'm not sure was it the veggies issue? If it were featured on my sgv passport. I mostly would pass up for it.

I have often drove past this restaurant while going grocery shopping in San Gabriel Valley, but…read moretoday I decided to stop by and try it. What a neighborhood gem Dolan's Uyghur Cuisine is! At first glance, the outside is very unassuming, but once I stepped in, I was amazed at the decor and music being played inside this establishment. From the efficient service, to the menu selections, everything was extraordinary. And the best part of it, everything served is halal. I was very satisfied with the well rounded meal items I chose to dine on today. I started off with a pot of Dolan's Special tea and an Uyghur Goshnaan. Then, came the two different mantas I ordered, one with meat and onions and the other with squash. Both excellent by the way! Next, came a plate of Uyghur Polo and lamb kebab. The skewers in which the lamb kebab were served on were very special and authentic looking, and the lamb tasted very excellent! To be completely honest, I'm sad that I was too full after all that food to order another pot of tea and a slice of honey cake as well as the homemade yogurt that I was looking at in the dessert section of the menu, but I guess that gives me an opportunity to go back to Dolan's again. Maybe the kind man who served me today felt my enthusiasm because he even gave me a complimentary cherry dessert to take home, which I thought was very nice of him. I am so happy that I decided to try Dolan's Uyghur Cuisine. I fully enjoyed my meal for lunch today and I can't wait until the next time I'm in the area to dine there again. If you are interested in trying delicious flavors of Uyghur cuisine, I recommend this place with all my heart. Dining there earlier brought me back to all the times I visited Central Asia, and filled me with many fond memories. Thank you Dolan's. I am craving it again already!

I have been here a few times over many years and I feel each visit is better than the previous. I…read moreused to have some issues with their price vs. portions but they have definitely improved on that. Their Big Plate Chicken is top notch. I've had it at several other places but the balance of spices and the chewiness of the hand pulled noodle puts Dolan's above the rest. All their noodles are really top notch. Tonight we had the Tower Kabob, Traditional Laghman, Chicken Kabob and Kava Samsa which has pumpkin instead of the usual beef filling. Everything was absolutely delicious. I was worried the lamb slices on the Tower Kabob would be dry or tough but it was neither. The lamb was very tender and the juices were dripping down onto the plate when it arrived. No gaminess at all. The seasoning was also just right with the spices like cumin, a touch of sweetness and not overly salty. My mom absolutely loved the Chicken Skewers. They had just the right amount of char from the grilling and perfectly cooked - tender but not undercooked. They were big meaty pieces and way better than the anemic chicken skewers you can find at many chinese skewer places. When the orders of the lamb and chicken arrived to the table we were hit with the delicous aroma of the roasted meats. The Kava Samsa with pumpkin was also good and quite filling. Savory with the natural sweetness from the squash. If they had been baked for a few minutes longer it would've been perfect. As it was the pastry was slightly undercooked. The only other thing I wish they could so is maybe allow a mixed plate for things like the beef/pumpkin Samsa and the lamb kebab/chicken skewers. They are priced the same, so why not let diners get a taste of both without having to order two orders which would be way too much food for some smaller parties. But that is a small quibble and I guess it'll keep people coming back to try other things. It also would've been cool to hear some Uyghur hits mixed in with the regular pop music playing throughout the meal. But I guess thats also very L.A. to listen to KAROL G singing in Spanish while eating some Uyghur skewers while talking about the fwy.

When I'm in the area and able, I still stop by for a to-go order or eat in if I'm craving it. Ambiance (2/5): It is not that great in there. It used to be buzzy and kind of nice, but after they put up the faux brick walls, it took out some of the personality. Post-COVID, I feel like it hasn't been the same the times I've visited. The ceiling was covered with dark spots / water damage that even my toddler commented. Service was okay. We came recently on a Sunday afternoon and it was stale and quiet in there, with just one worker in the front. Food (4/5): Maybe it's the nostalgia too, but I still love their fried Hainan rice set. It has a good amount of nicely seasoned, meaty fried chicken and the rice is lightly seasoned and fragrant with chicken broth. It also comes with a bowl of chicken broth. Our whole family loved the sets. The reason I give it 4/5 stars is because I've had good and bad experiences with this restaurant. This most recent visit was good, but I've gotten takeout or orders where it's mostly skin or barely any meat, or the rice was clumped or super mushy. They also no longer have the spicy broth option, but overall, their fried Hainan chicken set is generally solid for the price. The steamed version is good too, but we love the fried version more. Would we come back or order from here? Definitely. If there are a few restaurants that taste like SGV home to me, this is one of them. But yes, definitely not the cutest place to eat or go on a date.

If you're searching for Hainan chicken locations to try, Red chicken Thai needs to be on your list!…read moreThis small mom and pop shop offered a variety of chicken and rice combinations that would rival Heng Hengs. We got their half crispy and half chicken hainam and honestly it's one of the best rice dishes I have ever tried. Both the fried and boiled chicken were juicy and the rice was flavorful. I like that they provide you with a side of the flavorful chicken broth they used to season the rice. We also tried their tom kha which was flavorful but a little on the saltier end. They also have noddle dishes and we chose to try their Lard Na. It's basically crispy chowmein with a stirfry poured on top. For such a simple dish i was blown away with how flavorful it was! Til this day, I still think about the dish and can't wait to go back to get more!

Singapore Laksa (6/10) - the curry was rather thin and lacking in flavor but maybe that's because it's intended to be more of a soup. I would've preferred rice on the side instead of rice noodles. Next time I would get the actual curry instead of this, but that is just personal preference Roti (8/10) - probably the best thing we had. It was simple but very delicious, flakey and decadent. The curry sauce was much thicker and paired along well, giving a sweet and mildly spicy flavor Nasi Campur (7/10) - the first bite was delicious, but gradually became more monotonous after each bite. I think the ratio of fried chicken thigh to the sausage and cha siu was slightly off, adding to the repetitive nature of the dish. Overall, it was still quite good
